What a Waffle!

Who wouldn't like waffles for breakfast? A while back I had the idea to use one of my favorite kitchen staples, Martha White muffin mixes, to make waffles! As muffins, you can't beat the value of Martha White mixes--one envelope makes a half-dozen muffins for less than $2. Just imagine what kind of waffles they would make! Well, this past Sunday I tried out two of my favorite flavors: Apple Cinnamon and Banana Nut. I dumped the mix into a bowl with a pour spout and added 1/2 cup plus 1 or 2 tablespoons evaporated milk. Stir until just mixed. Let sit for a few minutes to thicken before cooking in a pre-heated waffle iron until golden. (Don't forget to spray your waffle iron with cooking spray!) These are very tender so be careful when removing them from the waffle iron. Drizzle a little melted butter over and keep warm until serving with your favorite syrup. I can't wait to try out Chocolate Chip and Chocolate Chocolate Chip. Wow!
